        "content": "<p>The Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming\/Investment Coordinating\nBoard (BKPM) recorded a positive trend towards a more even distribution\nof investment across Indonesia in the first half of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Investment realised outside Java reached Rp507.8 trillion (50.2%),\nexceeding the figure for Java, which stood at Rp502.8 trillion\n(49.8%).<\/p>\n<p>Nurul Ichwan, Deputy for Investment Promotion at the Ministry of\nInvestment and Downstreaming\/BKPM, stressed that the benefits of\ninvestment growth were no longer confined to major cities or\nconcentrated on Java.<\/p>\n<p>Investment activity has gained significant momentum in regions\noutside Java. \u201cFor example, North Maluku and Central Sulawesi made it\ninto the top five investment destinations in Indonesia during the first\nhalf of 2026,\u201d Nurul Ichwan said.<\/p>\n<p>Investment projects do more than build factories or production\nfacilities: they also spur the growth of new economic ecosystems in\nsurrounding areas, including demand for workers, transport services and\nhousing, as well as food businesses and other local economic support\nservices.<\/p>\n<p>A more even distribution of investment is expected to give people in\ndifferent regions opportunities to find better jobs in their home\nprovinces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is what we want to see from investment. It is not just about\ncapital coming in, but about economic activity growing domestically.\nInvestment arrives, jobs grow and the economic benefits are felt by all\nIndonesians,\u201d Nurul Ichwan said.<\/p>",
